Job description

About The Role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Junior Product Designer to join our team on a permanent basis.

This is a great role for someone early in their design career who wants to grow into product design while working on real digital products.

You might be a visual or UI designer stepping into product design, or a junior product designer with strong visual foundations. You will bring solid design experience and be keen to develop your skills across user journeys, interactions, and problem solving.

You care about creating designs that feel clear, friendly, and helpful. You think beyond individual screens, considering user flows and how people move through a product. You will work closely with developers, product owners, and senior designers, with regular feedback and support to help you grow.

Experience with UI components is important, including consistency, states, interaction patterns, and responsive behaviour. You do not need years of product experience. Thoughtful design work, curiosity, and a willingness to learn matter most.

You should be comfortable exploring ideas through sketches, flows, wireframes, and prototypes. Confidence with Figma is essential, including creating your own components or layouts.

This is a hybrid role, working 2 days a week from our Bradley Stoke office and 3 days a week at home.

We offer more than a job. We offer a career with purpose.

• Earnings That Motivate – enjoy a competitive salary plus automatic enrolment in our ‘Owning It Together’ Colleague Share Scheme - a unique opportunity to share in RAC’s future success and be rewarded for the exceptional work you deliver.

• Time Off That Matters – enjoy 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays. We also support work-life balance with paid family leave, flexible schedules, and practical resources to help navigate personal commitments.
• Financial Security & Perks – pension scheme with up to 6.5% matched contributions alongside life assurance cover up to 4x salary (10x optional with flex benefits), designed to support you long-term.
• Wellbeing That Works for You – our 24/7 confidential support service is available to you and household members aged 16+, offering reassurance whenever you need it.
• Extras That Make a Difference - access Orange Savings, our exclusive discount portal with deals across top retailers, holidays, tools, tech and more. After passing probation, you’ll automatically join our Colleague Share Scheme, giving you a stake in our collective success.

What you’ll do

• Design digital solutions that deliver best-in-class user experiences and support positive business outcomes.
• Collaborate with developers, product managers, senior designers, engineers, and business teams to create intuitive, visually engaging solutions.
• Ensure designs are user-friendly, accessible, and aligned with the overall product vision and goals.
• Apply a user-centred design approach by leveraging real customer insights and validating your work through user feedback.
• Work within a broader team to support the delivery of agreed digital KPIs and customer outcomes.
• Communicate design ideas effectively, both visually and verbally.
• Present concepts and rationale clearly to team members and stakeholders.
